Dry Jan 20 days

Im back to talk about being sober some more.

I never believed in myself enough to think I could go this long without being intoxicated so the past twenty days I have been reminded that I am stronger than I think. I keep thinking about how much money I would have spent on alcohol / social events where drinking is part of it if I hadn’t been doing a month booze free. It’s pretty awesome. I have more hope for myself than I did in the beginning on being able to reshape my relationship with drinking. I’ve come to recognize that drinking in response to “having a bad day” is unhealthy and making plans simply to drink is irresponsible. I am more confident in my ability to leave drinking to weekends, special occasions and my social life. I don’t want to cut drinking out forever and I have faith that I can be more thoughtful about my decisions. Im proud of myself. I’ve never committed to doing this before because I figured I would fail or give up and here I am, more than halfway through and I am doing a damn good job. That’s all from me I’ll check in when I need to.
